- In the long term, build and manage a scalable system to facilitate the smooth return of students to Ukraine, ensuring all logistical and cultural considerations are addressed.
- Oversee the day-to-day operations of the repatriation program, including budget management, resource allocation, and risk mitigation.

- Manage the databases of UGS interns and UGS alumni.
- Help UGS students find summer internships in Ukraine and help UGS alumni find their first jobs in Ukraine.
- Organize internship/job fairs and other internship/employment-related events online in Ukraine.
- Develop new strategic UGS initiatives focused on developing internship and job opportunities for UGS students in Ukraine, including in the sphere of science and arts.
- Develop UGS alumni relations and support UGS interns and alumni in other ways as may be necessary.
- Commitment to UGS’s mission and values (visit our website at UGS.foundation).
